    Hey everyone!

    Thanks Daniel2323! I have to say, this is un-like any other board I've been on. A great idea, for sure. Looking forward to posting with everyone and creating/replying to topics.

    Family Perks

    I'm not a cop, but I think every circumstance is different. I'm sure there may be some instances where this happens. But, I think the same can be said for the family of people in positions in other areas as well. (Political, Sports, Celebrity, etc.) I don't think it's fair or right, but people...

    Thanksgiving - what's on your menu?

    It's hard to believe that Thanksgiving is right around the corner. It's a great time to spend time with family and getting full. We always have Thanksgiving dinner at someone else's house, and not usually at our home. I'm not a big cook, I do cook - but I don't think I'm ready for the task of...

    Living in Fear

    Great question. I also wonder what it's like being married to an officer, or being the child. I imagine they might share those thoughts/concerns. I applaud the men/women and their families for their sacrifice. I know law enforcement gets a lot of negativity and criticism, but I am personally...

    What are the advantages of being a neighbor of a police officer?

    I think, if you have a good relationship with the officer, it can be a great thing. It would make me feel more safe. At the very least, he/she would be a great resource for information - like this forum. I would probably bug them with questions all the time. Lol.

    What are your favorite TV shows?

    As I sit here typing, not able to sleep - I'm watching Nick at Nite - Fresh Prince is on. This was one of my favorites growing up. As a kid, I liked Are You Afraid of the Dark, Blossom, Full House, and pretty much any cheesy sitcom that was on at that time. Lol When I was a teen, I loved...

    Do You Believe In The Concept Of Sin?

    Yes, I believe in the concept of sin. Yes, I believe that I am a sinner before a just and Holy God. Like the previous poster said, I also believe in Grace. I'm a Christian, and while there are many that give Christians a bad name - it is important to know that there are some of us doing our best...

    What are your favorites day to work?

    I work from home, and can pretty much set my schedule. With that being said, I try to work Monday-Friday. I would prefer Monday - Thursday, but that's not usually the case. I try to make sure I'm done working by 3:00-4:00pm. That way, I have time for my family, and on the weekends - I can put...

    Do you watch the news every day?

    I try to avoid the news, if possible. It'll depress you and make you paranoid. I sometimes tune into the weather, but that's it for the most part. Me watching it isn't so bad. It was when my kids would happen to hear/watch something and started asking me questions and worrying, that I knew we...

    At what age you started making money?

    I was 17 when I got my first job. I worked at a store in the mall that sold athletic shoes and clothes for small children. It was part-time and I made $5.15/hour. Somewhere, in one of my scrapbooks, I have a photo copy of my first check. I was so proud. It felt good to be able to pay for...

    Halloween Night

    I've always wondered this as well, and have assumed that Halloween would be more of a "busy" night for law enforcement. I tend to think of people pulling pranks, and partaking in mischief, etc. We went out with the kids this year and to my sister's afterwards. To my knowledge, it wasn't too bad...

    Who has sold items using Ebay?

    Most of my time on EBay has been from me buying and not selling. I've tried selling on EBay, but I haven't really made much profit from it. My husband, on the other hand, is much better. He has a gift for knowing what will sell. He finds things on clearance/discount and he can double or triple...
